<p>relax man. I think we all know that they suck and the value is in their contracts. like I said in my original reply, I don't think the Bulls are one of those teams who NEED to make a trade like that for salary purposes. they have set themselves up pretty nicely for the summer of 2010 to make a run at Bosh whoever. My point was, that if they're going to make a trade, they should make a run for an impact player now rather then waiting and hoping they can get him in free agency. And the point of posting the stats was merely out of coincidence. what are the chances somebody mentions a trade for those two, then they both put up a stinker like that which ESPN highlights in their daily dime.</p>

<p>Thanks for the amazing stats drummer. I had no idea that Brian Cardinal and Telfair suck. Their value is in their contracts. I guess I didn't realize Hinrich was playing as well as he is, so giving up the 15th pick would probably be too much. In reality, I doubt Chicago even has a good idea of what Hinrich's value will be this offseason. There could be 10 legit point guard prospects in this draft and who knows how many teams would rather have Hinrich over them and the other PG free agents like Bibby and Andre Miller? So anyways, I don't know Hinrich's exact value and whether a team can afford to give him 10 million bucks a year or not, but I sure can't imagine a team lacking a great 3rd option in the mold of a Ray Allen to not be willing to give out 10 million for Ben Gordon.</p>

<p>Remember, Paxson ingeniously gave Luol Deng everything under the sun and then traded for Salmons. Both are great 2nd or 3rd options. No wings!</p>
<p>Don, I agree with the Mullens pick- at the same time that Rose develops into the all-star we all know he will be eventually, Miller can teach Mullens how to actually play basketball instead of just being tall and athletic. If Rose got good at tossing lobs/ally-oops, that could be a ferocious combo (if you saw any of OSU in the Big 10 tournament, you know what kind of soft hands Mullens has near the basket).</p>
<p>As I said before, I just don't see Tyreke Evans meshing with Derrick Rose. You just can't draft someone that jeopardizes the development of your franchise's biggest investment. I'm still on the Terrence Williams/Wayne Ellington/trade the pick with gordon or hinrich bandwagon. I always thought that Gordon would be a great fit for New Orleans as a microwave scorer. Maybe we could get a future 1st rounder from them and some cash consideration.</p>

<p>Interesting stat from espn.com's daily dime today for the person who wanted the Bulls to traded Hinrich and our 15th pick for Cardinal and Telfair ....</p>
<p>TUESDAY'S WORST<br />
Sebastian Telfair and Brian Cardinal, Wolves: Minnesota's top two reserves both shot 2-for-9 from the field, combining for 11 points in 52 minutes on the floor.</p>

<p>Williams might not be bad for the Bulls. Other wings I like for them: Tyler Smith, DaJuan Summers, Omri Casspi, Sam Young and Wayne Ellington. Damion James and James Johnson just seem too similar to Tyrus in the sense they are athletic forwards with average (at best) skill sets.</p>

<p>They could use a good wing man because Thomas isn't a true wing man he man play the 4 and have noah coming off the bench for a spark of energy and defense plus the still have Deng so they could draft Terrence Williams who could play the 2 or 3.</p>

<p>He would be a good replacement for BG, but as it was mentioned earlier he demands the ball and Rose is already the go-to guy it seems, except late in games for a period. I agree with his ability to accept a role and score but with two guys always demanding the ball, there will be chemistry issues.</p>

<p>Tyreke Evans could be the replacement for Ben Gordon and could assume the same role, come off the bench and score points. BJ Mullens would be a project for them to develop, in the same way they did with Tyson Chandler, Eddy Curry, and now Tyrus Thomas and Noah. Mullens has a lot of potential and I think the Bulls could really turn into a decent player with a veteran like Brad Miller teaching him the game, or use him as trade chip for Chris Bosh or Amare Stoudemire.</p>

<p>Bulls do not need another PF. Go with Mullens and let Miller teach him all next year. The guy is just 19, and still growing into his body, plus he has good athleticism. Like someone said he would be a very good 6th man for us next year. I want Bosh, so if im the Bulls im looking into trading for him. Hinrich,Tyrus,Noah and future 1st or this years 1st for Chris Bosh. With the money you lose with Hinrich im re-signing Ben Gordon. Bulls also have a 2nd round pick from the Knicks this year, so with that ill grab a PG to back up Rose. Nick Calathes (Hinrich clone),Darren Collison,AJ Price,Toney Douglas,Marcus Thornton all would be great picks for the Bulls.</p>
<p>Rose,Nick Calathes<br />
Salmons,Gordon<br />
Deng, DaJuan Summers<br />
Chris Bosh,Tim Thomas<br />
Brad Miller, BJ Mullens</p>

<p>The Bulls need to let Ben Gordon walk. They tried to give him 10 mil a year for 5 or 6 years which would've been a death sentence for the Bulls cap flexibility. Unless BG is willing to come back for 6 mil a year and come off the bench: good riddance. I would love to replace Ben with Jeff Teague at 15 (or if he's gone) then AJ Price at 25. Not saying either can score as well as Ben, but at least both can handle the ball and would at least TRY on defense and I highly doubt they would whine as much about being a 6th man. Don't really think we need a big, maybe a back up 4, but if by some miracle Cole Aldrich is available at 15 I'd be ecstatic. Also think the Bulls need to add shooting from any position they can find it. Ellington would be interesting at 25. As for trade talks with Toronto, I'd be cautious not to give up too much for Bosh as they have a REAL shot at landing him as a free agent after next year anyway. I certainly don't want too give up Hinrich anymore (unless we HAVE too). He is the perfect backup/compliment to Derrick Rose. Would much rather trade Deng and try to extend Salmons.</p>
